👨🍳 Instrukcje

In a mortar and pestle or food processor, combine the soaked sticky rice, lemongrass, shallots, garlic, and Thai chilies. Pound or process until a coarse paste forms.

Add the fish, kaffir lime leaves, dill, cilantro, fish sauce, and salt to the paste. Mix well until everything is thoroughly combined. The mixture should be firm enough to shape.
- 3
Form the mixture into small, flattened patties or cakes, about 1.5-2 inches in diameter.
- 4
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
- 5
Carefully place the fish cakes into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.

Remove the fish cakes from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with a side of sweet chili sauce or a spicy dipping sauce.
